Lobsters....YUMMYYY!!!





After all our hard work in the yard on Sunday we decided to treat ourselves to a special treat. It was the best $65 we spent in a long time. I can honestly say it was the first time in 9 yrs that I had lobsters cooked the old fashioned "newfie way". They were to die for!!!

My Mini Flower Garden




Vicky & Corey's Jack & Jill






Friday night at Corey & Vicky's Jack & Jill was so much fun. It's always great to get together with fellow newfies and remember your roots. There was lots of newfie music. :)

The Great Outdoors






Well I guess we have to be thankful for the rain while camping yet AGAIN. It just seems like everything we plan a camping trip it pours out of the heavens. I've come to accept it now and actually invested in some rubber boots....see funny pictures below. I must say that Christa and myself were probably 2 of the hottest hicks..I mean chicks in the entire park. :)

We (myself, Chris, Christa & Kristen) went to Earl Rowe Park, just outside of Alliston. Seemed like a nice park even though we were confined to our mud puddle of a campsite.

Memoirs of a Geisha

I've decided to blog about the books that I read (since I read alot), well the really good ones anyways. I'm currently reading "Memoirs of a Geisha", and I must admit that I really really like it. I had no idea what the book was even about but since there was a movie coming out I figured i'd read the book before I watched the movie. It's just amazing what some people endure during their lifetime. We are just so lucky that we have the freedom to live our lives as we choose. Her mother is dying and her father SELLS her and her sister. She ends up being separated from her sister and living in this "house" where she's supposed to train to become a "Geisha". She's like 12 yrs. old for crying out loud. Her sister who is just a few yrs. older is not "pretty" enough and is basically sold as a prostitute.
I'm only 1/3 of the way through but i'll let you all know my views when I finish.
